TL;DR: PAT of the DNA nanostructures showed distance-dependent photoacoustic signal enhancement and demonstrated the ability of PAT to reveal the FRET process deep within tissue mimicking phantoms.

TL;DR: Four highly sensitive bifunctional fluorescent probes, capable of H2O2 and/or amyloid aggregate detection, are created and results indicate these new probes will be useful to detect and monitor neurodegenerative disease.

TL;DR: The properties of the derivatives provide new insights into the relationship between chemical structure and function of benzothiazole probes and their abilities to perform super-resolution imaging of α-synuclein fibrils with localisation precisions of ~16 nm.

TL;DR: Thioflavin X, (ThX), a next-generation fluorescent probe which displays superior properties and can be used to study unique structural amyloid features both in bulk and on a single-aggregate level, is designed and used as a super-resolution imaging probe in single-molecule localisation microscopy.

TL;DR: The capability of PAT to probe distance-dependent FRET at centimeter depths is reported and the ability to reveal the FRET process deep within tissue mimicking phantoms is experimentally demonstrated.
